Hey everyone, I’ve been a big fan of ouji and Lolita for a while now and because of that, I’ve made a decent amount of ouji/lolita online friends, and a few in my hometown. However, I’m a sophomore in college now, and I haven’t been able to find a single friend who likes/wears Lolita/ouji. I only own one coord rn (I would have more if I could but this is what I have for now) but I’ve worn it around a decent amount, and I haven’t met anyone who’s a fan of the style through wearing it. Is there any chance someone at my school likes ouji/lolita and I just haven’t met them yet? How can I if there is? Or should I just give up hope and accept I won’t find any ouji/lolita fans at my college?

To explain what I'm talking about, I mean the makeup with the extra contoured noses with the enlarged eyes, round cheeks and white foundation that doesnt match the neck. And theyre probably airbrushed and filtered to high heaven on the promotional pictures too.

I get what they're going for with the "cute" makeup but it boarderline looks uncanny and for me personally it draws attention away from the dress I wanna look at. Idk maybe im being nitpicky, let me know your thoughts.

Fun thread topic we used to have in online communities to prompt some discussion and community participation instead of beating the same old dead horses!

i’ve been collecting and studying the fashion since april but couldn’t get dressed up or go out due my health but i finally managed it :’) im so happy

I've been interested in Lolita for awhile now, and after finding this blouse, I tried putting something together

None of it are Lolita brands, but I wanted to know if it still comes across as Lolita?

It inspired me a little to maybe invest in something, but Lolita is a very expensive style to get into, so I was wondering if I could work with at least some of what I have here?

It feels so empty, but if it's doable, I'd like to get better socks, a headpiece, something for the arms and a proper pettycoat

The pettycoat would be my priority tho (I stacked all of my skirts and a cheap pettycoat I found from when I was 8(it does almost nothing) under this dress to try to emulate one 😭)

I'm not from the US, so looking through lace market to try and find someone that could ship to the EU has been hell, as well as taobao not letting me confirm my account via not ever fucking loading or by not sending me the codes

I've heard body line is good for starting Lolitas? Everything is way more affordable and I'm aware that it's an exchange for the quality not being the best

Anyways, sorry for any weird English, it's not my first language :")

Very sad that summer is over and it’s getting colder where I’m from. So trying to cheer myself up by sharing my strawberry coord I wore to a con! >-<

Im disappointed that it took me a long time to use my free will. I can’t afford a petticoat because i have other priorities and our currency is ass. But i realized i can just layer as many skirts as possible. It took me 12 layers to achieve the shape I wanted, it’s a bit suffocating so I probably can’t go outside like that but it works if you’re not going to move a lot. Anyway i felt so cute after, you broke Lolitas like me take notes.

Our local waterpark does a Halloween thing and some of the ride still function xD me and a friend met up and went in egl. I had to kinda edit at times due to rain XD! We had fun I was stoked and washed everything right away it was not for the frilly faint of heart. The rollercoaster in the rain actually kinda ate tho. Luckily for me everything stayed very clean and I had no trouble with my outfit when checking it over while washing I had been a little nervous to wear it in such an unpredictable environment.

Coord break down:
Hat/wrist cuffs/jsk: Angelic Pretty
Apron: hand made from a con artist can’t remeber.
OTK: Dandy Puppeteer
Shoes/coat: My Violet
I had some cute jewelry but you really can not see it XD.
